A family on the brink of splitting up becomes the owner of a cutting-edge robot wanted by a corporation, homicide investigators and terrorists.
Loosely respecting Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics, it feels close to blending shows like the Swedish “Real Humans”, the British “Humans” and the movie “I, Robot”, but telling its own story. It’s Russian-made, and it comes from the new Russian schohool of cinema, which blends good writing, high budgets, great VFX and very good looking cast. And while it looks Hollywood-ish, it’s better without the diversity checkboxes in place. Three popcorns, as the premise is good, but the plotholes are so big, an android could fly a jumbo jet through them. Like one dude somehow surviving after getting shot from 2 meters in the back and getting buried alive.
